In today's Nintendo Direct presentation, it was announced that there will be a new Pokémon type in Pokémon X/Y. The Fairy type will be super-effective against Dragons. Fairies include the new Eevee evolution Sylveon, and several older Pokémon such as Jigglypuff, Gardevoir, and Marill.

The new games will also include a feature called Pokémon Aime. This mini-game allows trailers to pet, feed, and play with their Pokémon in order to deepen the bonds between them. Both new announcements are detailed in the E3 trailer below:
